Please remember we will be running two homework workshops for Primary 1 children this week:

Tuesday 3rd September 3.00pm – 3.30pm

Thursday 5th September 3.00pm – 3.30pm

Please sign in at the front entrance then make your way round to the class.

It will be the same content covered in both sessions so come to whichever one suits you best.

Thank you 

p1 pupils have come home with 2 letters regarding their p1 class photo in the Cumbernauld News.

The photo will be taken on Tuesday 10th September.

If you wish to purchase a souvenir edition on Wednesday 9th October please complete the letter and hand it back in to school with the correct money.

Just a reminder that P.E. days are a Thursday and a Friday.

Please make sure that children have:

• Gym shoes

• T-shirt

• Shorts

Children can leave their P.E. kit in school if that is easier (they each have their own box).

Today we were having more fun in the Learning Zone.

P1’s have been learning the sounds ‘t’ and ‘a’ this week and enjoyed being text detectives and finding the sounds in the learning zone!

P2’s have been practising their handwriting and working on ordering numbers.

P1’s have come home with a letter today regarding a ‘Homework Workshop’ next week.

Please complete the slip and hand it back into school indicating which day, if any, you wish to attend.

Thank you.

Today in the Learning Zone it was ‘Free Play Friday’ – that means we can move area.

There seems to have been a mix up with school blazers.

I have a size 23 school blazer in the class. Someone is missing a size 25 blazer which only has one button.  Can you please check if you have this blazer at home and we can swap them back.

Can you please ensure all clothing/belongings are labelled.

As always, thank you for your support.

Today we talked about different jobs and different people who help us in the community.

We then thought about what job we want to have when we are older and drew some fantastic pictures.
